THIS GAME IS AMAZING!!! I do not usually find Visual Novels all that interesting or fun, but this game has 100% been the exception that may get me to try more VNs in the future. A few days before the release the Devs reached out to me on twitter for me to try this game on my stream, and i was apprehensive at first due to my lack of skill in choice based games and my disinterest in VNs as a whole, but after playing this game on stream (ive only complete up to day 10 so far) i am absolutely head over heals for it. It is an indie game, so it has some issues (though from what ive seen they are extremely minor!) but more importantly it has some of the most interesting and fun characters and character interactions I've seen in an indie game in a long long time. The story is extremely fun to play through, and the perspective of being the "NPC" in an RPG setting and experiencing the story from such an unusual perspective has absolutely captivated me. Every character (in design, personality and story!) feels so unique youre guaranteed to have a favorite before you meet even half the full character roster. The actual game play is also extremely fun! I'm someone who likes to challenge myself and memorize mechanics more than actually learn them, and i found that the game let me play how ever i wanted, it had helpful tips and information scattered around so if i ever did get stuck, i had help. but if i wanted to just do what ever i felt like the game let me do that. the punishments arent harsh so even if you fail you get some interesting story from it, and success is rewarded with epic stories as well! it feels like you too are part of the story, which only helps your attachment to these amazingly written characters. overall this VN has been a 10/10 for me and i can not wait to finish this game, and try and unlock even more stories and interactions. Congratulations Birb Cafe for finally getting me interested in a game style i had previously considered boring. and thank you so much for this opportunity! (i was given the game for free, but this review is of my own will and im not in any way paid or incentivized to say anything one way or another about this game! ♥ ) sorry for spelling errors, i am very excited haha

A cozy, comfy game with adorable protagonist and a variety of colorful characters. The gameplay requires a lot of wits to calculate the perfect recipe for every character and every event.
Birb Café is an incredible little story with extraordinarily well-written characters. It presents itself as a funny visual novel with an added coffee-making mechanic, but then it unravels into a much deeper story whose characters show incredibly diverse and colorful personalities, some with accents you can hear despite the lack of voice acting; and twists you just don't see coming with this level of storytelling. Despite it all, Birb Café doesn't stray too far from its light-hearted premise, yet embraces its vibe and owns it. The coffee-making mechanic can be a little confusing at first and does require a learning curve, but the well-polished tutorial and interface help you wonderfully along your journey as the kingdom's favorite NPC, and the game delivers accurate, satisfying repercussions on the story depending on your outcomes. This game shows it was 100% made with love and dedication and, especially for this price, I certainly recommend it.
What a delight of a game! A great mix of visual novel storytelling and dialogue, a fun potion-mixing (coffee brewing) mini game, all wrapped up in a story centered around D&D-style adventurers and the heroic quests they go on. The art is charming, the characters memorable, and the story engaging. 10/10, very cute birds contained within
Adorable, chill game about making coffee for adventurers. You need to pick the right ingredients and recipe to succeed in each quest, and while this starts easy enough, some of the later days can get tougher to figure out. While there are only 2 different endings here, there's plenty of variety in the dialogue and character interactions depending on which quests you've failed or succeeded in. And that's my favorite part about the game: the dialogue and lovable cast of characters (Krieg might be my personal favorite, but they're all great). I never felt like the story dragged on, and the characters work well with each other and have some hilarious lines. The character art has lots of different expressions/poses too (which is something some visual novels are really lacking in), and the music is excellent. It's about 5 hours for a playthrough, and a fun ride all the way through. (One thing I'd like to see is a "back" button in Caff's shop, because if you forget to save on the end of day screen then you have to go through a whole new day before you can save again)
Absolutely adorable casual game with a cast of funny and lovable characters! Easy to get to grips to, has an overall comfy feeling and some genuinely funny writing that's gotten more than a fair share of laughs out of me. Very excited to see what comes next from this dev!
I'm haven't completed this game yet, but I wanted to make a quick positive review to help the game get noticed. I'm really enjoying the game so far. The dialogue is really well done and is often humorous, and the characters are really interesting. I really like the pleasant artwork, and the character designs are very creative and really fit the characters' personalities. The characters' facial expressions and body poses change appropriately with their dialogue and moods, and makes the scene lively and engaging. I also like the background music, which changes based on the characters that are in the scene. I get a strong nostalgic feeling from the music, like I've heard the style before, may be similar to old 90's games' music. I'm really grateful for the good tutorial for making the coffee. As I play the game longer, I feel very motivated to make coffee with the best boosts for a given challenge that each character will face. Once I finish the game, I'll update this review, but so far, I really like playing this game, and I look forward to playing it all the way to the end, and then replaying it to find the perfect coffee to make for the adventurers each day. Update: I really wanted to nominate this game for the "Game of the Year" award, but I'm certain that it has a very low chance of winning that, so I decided nominate this game for the "Outstanding Story-Rich Game" award, which I think it has a better chance of winning.
A simple game about following cues for the right reactions! Pretty much if you enjoy Phoenix Wright style of visual novels where actions still matter this is a solid choice. I would have preferred seeing a little bit more importance to the upgrades you can buy, but for the price and time the game asks for, it's solid!
An absolutely fun and adorable coffee making sim filled with lovely characters!
Great game if you like Tall tales and making coffee.
